Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 235
Not allowed to go out, not allowed to find Jingning and the others.Lan Yao was stunned, she liked to play and didn't like to be detained in the mansion, her grandfather knew it all the time, because of his love, he never said anything, he kept letting himself go, why did he suddenly change his mind.

"Grandpa, why? Why didn't you let me go out and go to Jingning and the others? Grandpa, you clearly know that I don't like staying in the mansion all day? Grandpa, grandpa, I won't go anywhere else. Just allow me to go and play with Jingning, I'm too boring by myself."

This time the old man was very strict, keeping a straight face, indifferent to Lan Yao's coquettishness. "I don't like staying in the mansion all day. Is this something you like? Do you think there is a lady like you who runs out all day?"

"I don't want to be like a lady." Lan Yao rolled her eyes and muttered softly.

The old man cast a glance at Lan Yao. In fact, the old man was also a person who went to the battlefield when he was young.I can't appreciate the subtlety and euphemism of a lady, so I haven't restrained Lan Yao before, and I haven't cultivated her in the way of a lady.It's just that now, it is absolutely necessary to arrest Lan Yao and cut off her relationship with Na Qiguo.

"Before, you were still young, so I won't talk about you. Now you are almost at the age of marriage. You should change your child's temper at home. Since you are embroidering sachets, embroider a few more, more Practice your craft, and embroider a few for your loved ones at home."

"Marry?" Lan Yao was taken aback, "Grandpa, what are you talking about? I'm only young, and it's too early to get married! Besides, even if I'm about to grow old, you can keep me for a few more years .Grandpa, are you willing to marry me as a wife?" As she spoke, Lan Yao shook the old man's arm coquettishly.

"It's not that I'm going to marry you off after I reach the age. You have to start preparing for various matters after the age. Besides, I marry you to your cousin. Your cousin was seen growing up from a young age. You are also very close, if you want to come back at any time, that kid will not dare to disagree, so there is nothing to be reluctant about."

"What?" Lan Yao screamed, "Marry cousin?" She didn't expect her grandfather to really think about her marriage too much, "I don't want it."

"No? Your cousin is so nice and you are very close. What's not to like? Otherwise, who do you want to marry?"

Chen Zhi.The name came to Lan Yao's mouth but was swallowed, and Lan Yao's mood fell instantly, wanting to be with Chen Zhi, how could it be so easy.

Sensing Lan Yao's depressed mood, the old man understood that the girl's love for family was unwilling to get married, "If you don't like your cousin Xu, and your cousin Zheng, cousin Rong and the others... anyway, they are all in the capital, and they are not married. Marry a wife, and she has a good character, and has a close relationship with you."

Lan Yao twitched her mouth and heard the old man give out a name, "Grandpa, how do you know that they don't have anyone they like, and how do you know that they are willing to marry me?"

"Heh." The old man sneered, "My granddaughter is so good, it's their blessing to let them marry, how dare they disagree?"

Feeling the old man's domineering sideways leakage, Lan Yao couldn't laugh or cry. "Grandpa, don't be in a hurry. You see Jingning is older than me, she's not married yet, and I'm not in a hurry."

"Then you don't go out during this time, do more needlework in the mansion to honor the elders, embroider well, I want the sachet you are embroidering now." Said, the old man slowly walked out of Lan Yao's yard.

Lan Yao frowned, this sachet must be left to Chen Zhi, at worst, I will embroider the same one for grandpa again, it's just that time is running out.Thinking of the sachets from her parents, Lan Yao felt angry, Chen Zhi, what do you want? If you want a sachet, how many sachets will this miss pay for you if you want to embroider this sachet for you.

"Oh, that's right." The old man stopped at the entrance of the courtyard, "The Xiao family went to the prime minister's residence this morning to propose a marriage."

"Oh." Lan Yao was still counting the number of sachets without paying attention to what the old man said. After the old man left, she suddenly woke up, "What? Xiao Lin went to propose marriage to Jingning?"

Prime Minister's Mansion.Today is Zheng Anyan and Xiumu, Jing Ning thought about the last time he played chess with Xiao Lin and lost, he felt a little unwilling, his chess skills are not good, but if he does not improve, then he will play chess with Xiao Lin in the future, Wouldn't it be that he would lose all the time.Thinking of this, Jing Ning took the chessboard and ran to the prime minister's study early in the morning to play chess with Father Zheng.Zheng Anyan thought about Xiu Mu, and happened to have nothing to do with the court, so he readily agreed to play chess with Jingning, and by the way, increase the affection between father and daughter.

The two of them were concentrating on it when the butler hurriedly came to report, "Master, Miss, General Xiao's family is here as a guest."

Zheng Anyan put down the chess in his hands, "Oh, do you know why the Xiao family suddenly came to the door? Please go to the lobby." The Xiao family and the prime minister's residence, one civil and one military, although the relationship between the two families is good, the communication on the surface is not. A lot, except that the children of the two families often play together, the adults of the two families seem to be a lot more distant, not because of a bad relationship, but mainly to appease the person sitting on the dragon chair. After all, if the relationship between the two most important civil and military officials Being too close made the emperor suspicious.

"Mrs. Xiao has gone to the old lady's courtyard. Master Xiao and General Xiao have been invited to the hall. As for what's the matter." The housekeeper secretly glanced at Jingning, "I don't know." Although the housekeeper secretly took a look , but was still discovered by Jing Ning.

Mrs. Xiao, in the old lady's courtyard.Jing Ning's heart skipped a beat.Suddenly remembered the conversation with Xiao Lin in Lanyao Courtyard a few days ago, could it be that he came to propose marriage?
Jing Ning noticed the butler's little tricks, and Zheng Anyan noticed even more. Seeing Jing Ning's sudden nervous appearance, Zheng Anyan understood it.

"Jingning, let's go back to the room first. I'll go to the hall to see why the Xiao family boy came here." After saying that, Zheng Anyan got up, adjusted his clothes, and walked towards the hall imposingly, hum, boy, I want to snatch it away. My daughter, wishful thinking.

Zheng Anyan was still thinking about how to get confused along the way, trying to prevent Xiao Lin from revealing the purpose of his visit this time.Zheng Anyan is very confident. A general, but a military commander, who wields knives and guns, how can he speak of a civil servant.

But he didn't want to, he just walked into the hall, cleared his throat twice and was about to say hello, Xiao Lin knelt down in front of him with a "thump", "Uncle Zheng, Xiao Lin really loves Zheng Jingning, Miss Your Mansion, and I'm here this time , hoping to marry Jingning as his wife, Xiao Lin vowed to treat Jingning sincerely, and also hoped that Uncle Zheng would be fulfilled."

Zheng Anyan was stunned, this was completely different from what he had imagined.He bent down to help Xiao Lin up, "It is said that this man has gold under his knees, and General Xiao should be more so, get up quickly." But Xiao's father standing behind said, "Hey, Brother Zheng, this daughter-in-law is like a daughter-in-law It's much more important. He should kneel down in front of you. Jing Ning is a good person, and our Xiao family likes it very much. If you marry into our Xiao family, our Xiao family will definitely not treat you badly, so you can rest assured."

When did I agree with Jing Ning to marry your Xiao family? Sure enough, most of the military officers are hooligans.Zheng Anyan cursed bitterly in her heart, but her mouth was lingering and she would not let go.
